One day, an evil woman (Kate) killed Bawang Putih's
mother (Joanne) while her husband was away

The merchant (Top) soon married the evil woman (Kate),
not knowing that she was the one who killed his late wife.

One day, his son
Iskandar (Derek) found out that she was
his mother's killer and he then tried to kill his stepmom.
Unfortunately his father was killed while protecting her.
Iskandar ran away, leaving his baby sister, Bawang Putih.

Iskandar was later adopted by the
King and became the best
friend of young Prince Alauddin, the heir to the throne.

Bawang Putih (Jennifer) was raised by her evil stepmom who was
never kind to her. She was forced to do all household chores
while
Bawang Merah, her stepmom's birthchild, was treated like a
princess

Whenever Bawang Putih felt sad or lonely, she
would talk to her friend, Kalong the Fish (Joanne).

One fine morning, the Prince & Iskandar watched a
"dikir barat" show, performed at the market.

The Prince saw Bawang Putih for the first time, but only from
a distance. Fascinated at the beauty of Bawang Putih,
everyone at the market sang "Gadis Misteri" to her.

After knowing that Bawang Putih was
spending a lot of
time with the fish instead of doing household
chores, the evil stepmom killed the fish.

The bones of the fish then turned
into a tree and its veins
became a swing which Bawang Putih could sit on.

She started
singing. Her lovely voice was heard by the Prince. When
she realized that someone was looking for her, she quickly
returned home. The prince kept on looking for the girl . . .

The Prince later came across a house where the evil woman lived.
Bawang Merah claimed that the lovely voice was hers but she
failed
to convince the Prince when she was asked to sing once more.

Then Bawang Putih appeared. He remembered seeing her
at the market the other day. He invited her to attend
a ball that would be held at the palace.

At the palace, during a Hindi dance
performance, the evil stepmom
put a love spell on the Prince for her daughter, Bawang Merah.
True love won : the spell did not work !

The evil stepmom tried to kill Bawang Putih but Iskandar
killed her first before he himself was killed. Only then he
found out that Bawang Putih was his long-lost sister.
The Prince and Bawang Putih then
lived happily ever after . . .
